So I was looking through a fan fiction site today and came across a story about "ring rats"...described as women who follow the wrestlers around to all their shows and try to get into bed with them...or at least that was the impression that the story gave. Now I'm fully aware that it was just a story but I am curious to know if this idea is based at all on truth. Are there women out there who follow guys around to all their matches trying to get into their pants?? I'm well aware that the guys have all their followers and groupies etc but seriously...has anyone else heard of "ring rats"??

Oh yeah. Definately true. There is a site called Wrestling on the Fringe that has interviews with both rats and wives. Interesting view of both sides.
I'd have been a ring rat, if I hadn't married too young and had lived anywhere near where wrestling actually occurs, and had had slutty tendencies. Matter of fact, when I met Bret Hart last month, I considered becoming one right there.
Still thinking about it. How cold IS it in Calgary right now, anyway?
I read an interview with Raven once where he mentioned them. Apparently at one point in his career his life outside the ring was pretty much filled with sex with them and heroin. As far as I know he's past that phase now, but I wouldn't be surprised if other wrestlers have the same type of thing going on.
Websters dictionary defines ring rats as... Ring rats: The professional wrestling (sports entertainment) version of rock and/or roll groupies. Ah ring rats, the reason my dad comes to watch me wrestle, he can see me get killed and find a skank all in one night.
I used to be friends with a rather infamous ring rat. She had all sorts of stories (none I'll repeat here) about the wrestlers she'd had relations with. She didn't have a particularly good reputation, but she was very open and honest about what she was.
I've been approached in the past a couple of times by wrestlers who assumed that I was a rat. It seems that some guys assume that, if you're a chick at a wrestling show, you're only there to get banged.
I seem to remember a web-only promotion featuring highspot-laden matches performed by teenagers, mostly second- or third-generation kids of wrestlers. I think it was called Ring Rats. Do you think whoever named the fed knew of this groupie definition?

That was Mat Rats. Eric Bischoff was working with them, and they changed the name to Next Generation Wrestling. They were working towards syndication/PPV, but those aren't the easiest to get. Their old Matrats.com site is now gone, though.
Back to the original topic, there was a website called 1ringrats/ring-rats.com that had webpages full of stories about various wrestlers and their sexual exploits. The most infamous story involved the Hardy Boys, Lita and several other of their friends in an orgy. Parts of the site are still available via the wayback machine, although I don't believe that story is.
wrestlingDB: Like the new 1wrestling.com, without the time-wasting, ad filled intermediate page linking you to the actual news story.
In Mick's first book he describes such a woman from his early career. I don't have it with me, but someone can give a better description. She would wait for him outside of arenas, send him notes and just creep the shit out of him.
Kinda Strange.
"Huard, gonna go back to throw the ball. Sets up, looks, throws towards the corner of the endzone...it is INTERCEPTED INTERCEPTED, THE DUCKS HAVE THE BALL! Down to the 35, the 40. Kenny Wheaton's gonna score! Kenny Wheaton is gonna score! 20, the 10, Touchdown! Kenny Wheaton on the interception, the most incredible finish to the football game!"

I know who you are referring to: she was some fan who later claimed that she and Cactus Jack were married (signing her letters Mary Ann Manson) and sent a ring announcer a letter claiming that Cactus was going to kill her.
I wouldn't call her a rat, but rather a whacked-out stalker (which also run rampant in wrestling).
I used to know a ring rat. She told me about several wrestlers she claimed to sleep with, but the only names I remember off the top of my head are Tito Santana and Koko B. Ware.
At the independent wrestling organization I used to work with, there were rats at the shows. Every shitty wrestler would still have women all over him after the show. It was really freaky.

I attended the night before Wrestlemania party in Philly in 1999, and some of the wrestlers were cool enough to just hang out on the floor for a long time (read: not as popular, so they were relegated to PR duty). Brian Christopher spent hours on the floor, talking with people about USWA and other topics (but he still denied he was Lawler's kid!). At his side for the entire night was a mother and daughter team, and the mother had her hands down his pants for the entire evening. And when Isaac Hayes sang "Simultaneous Loving" she pointed to herself and her daughter ("you, and me, and her") To his credit, he kept pushing her away, and actually asked the group of people around him to follow him to a new location in hopes that they wouldn't find him when they went to the can. The women were wasted (I don't remember if they served booze there) and I eventually saw them stagger into a cab at about 2 in the morning, without Too Sexy. I'm going to bet he saved himself several weeks of antibiotics by avoiding them. It just goes to show that if you're famous enough, skanky women will want to have sex with you.
Note: if a party is "catered" by Chef Boyardee, it's probably going to suck. This one definitely did, although my ugly mug wound up on TV when I happened to be standing next to X-Pac. And I did get to see Isaac Hayes sing, which is very cool.
Gravity is a contributing factor in nearly 73 percent of all accidents involving falling objects.
There used to be a yahoogroup called "Amazon Wrestling" that would post columns for most of the female columnists on the net. Half the staff immediately resigned when they brought in one of the girls from the ringrats site.
They don't get a lot of props from either fans or wrestlers.

Was BB the wife who they they said left Bob because he injured his neck... Or was the wife who left him because he had the neck surgery the same wife he cheated on with BB. If that's the case maybe Sparky Plugg marriage had more problems then Bob being on the injury list

BB/Kathy Dingman got together with Bob Holly during his seperation with his first wife...although there was some speculation as to whether or not things heated up BEFORE he was seperated from his first wife. Bob and BB were married in 2000 or 2001 and then they got divorced shortly after Bob had his neck surgery in early 2003...according to him (in an interview with SD magazine) she decided she didn't want to be married anymore...whatever the hell that means. But he's single now baby and that's all that matters to me!!

Aw come on....just a few stories with the names changed, please? ;)
Wait…if it’s MLK Jr. Day AND Pat Patterson’s Birthday…who gets the token win here?-- Matt "Excalibur05" Hocking on a match between Mark Henry and Rico
MH: What’s a clever way to say that I have a penis? CJ: Uh…Mark, nobody’s going to buy that shirt. MH: How about if I say that I’ve got…a…uh…? CJ: Coming up with T-Shirt ideas is hard Mark, why not leave it to the WWE marketing department. MH: I know! I’ve got it! CJ: Got what? MH: Stank! That’s Mah Stank! I’m gonna make a fortune!! CJ: “That’s Mah Stank”? MH: On the front it’ll say “Can You Smell It?” and on the back it’ll say “That’s Mah Stank”. Everybody’ll buy it because they’ll think it’s a Rock shirt. CJ: You know…you might be on to something there, sad to say. MH: I can’t wait to show mah stank to Trish.
You know, I have a feeling that Spanky didn’t quit, he was fired. Why? So they could repackage Mark Henry as “Stanky.” Think about THAT! --Matt "Excalibur05" Hocking, 1/19/04 Raw Satire
